Take me back!

Gone are the days when I would be able to play The legend of zelda for 13hrs straight with no care in the world.I miss how I would come home from school through my bookbag in some random place in my room and load up megaman or some action game humming the theme song. Yeah those were the days!.Now that i'm 26 I have a 40hr aweek job and I go to scollege fulltime its hard just trying to get in an hour of gaming.  I have over 40 new games that i'm getting back up on completeting because either i'm tired from work or i'm writing some stupid reseaerch paper.I love my xbox live! but sometimes I feel like i'm paying for nothing I want to pull a 24hr gaming session. I snuck one in for newyears 08 with halo 3 but I need more gaming hours in my week. and with me being a Rpg fanatic how am I supposed to become fully absorbed in the game if by the time the action starts it's time for work or class? I envy youner gamers today who if you log on 3 in the morning they are still up working hard on those achievement points. I have to find a way to free up some time i'm going crazy.

I'm a true gamer yet casual gamers are getting more gametime than me that's not right.
